And welcome to another edition of the Fantasy Freestyle right here under the award winning Fantasy Sports Radio Network. We got a big show for you as we are heading into week thirteen. In most formats. Now, I know there's some teams, there's some leagues where you play in week fourteen or fifteen or already done or have two week playoffs, but the lion's share of leagues go until week thirteen, and then you got your playoffs in weeks fourteen, fifteen,
and sixteen. So it is crunch time. I gotta let people know how to win their leagues and win that cash. Here what we're gonna do. We're gonna talk about the injuries, who the next man up are in week thirteen, and there are some this week. We'll also talk about what Speed's got right, what Speed's got wrong going into the
Thanksgiving week. Remember last week I only had the one show on the Tuesday, but I was on this network in the mornings on Roto Experts in the morning, on Fantasy Sports Today, on social media, letting you know what I thought was going to go down in week twelve. Will do that. Then we will take a look at waivers for week thirteen. Okay, you may be in the market for a new tight end. Potentially you may have
lost Melvin Gordon and or Marlon Mack. I'm gonna tell you some running backs that you can put in and start right now, including a running back that was just activated off the publist today that I think certain people need to make sure they go out and grab I'll let you know who know who that is a little bit later on in the show, after we do our waivers. I already see you guys. Okay, some of you guys are out there smashing that like button. I already know
what it is, Lance Davis. It is the award winning you know what I'm saying. So I see you guys asking questions, smashed that like button, um, and then we'll answer some of those questions. And then what I have is a very special guest. In the last couple of shows, we have had amazing stats over beat Cipher guests. If you were with me last week, we had Young Cause
of the Trap Game my estros right. We also had my man Danny Lee representing the US Air Force coming from an undisclosed location with his boy Boom boom pal pal big shout out to them. We are going to have a similar stats Overbeats representative joined the show a little bit later on. It's gonna be big things, So let's get right on into it. Since we last spoke, oh, we got a poll question up as well. I forgot my pole question for you guys, is what is the
best one to wide receiver combo in the NFL? And I say one too, and I say wide receiver very specifically. Your options at this point are Is it the crew up there in Minnesota? Is it? I got a feeling and Stephen can you digs it? Is it those guys up in Pittsburgh right now? Antonio Brown and Juju ridden on that beat. The other option I have for you is the Rams, because maybe going three deep is in fact better what they have their full three, including Cooper Cup.
Maybe it's them or is it someone else? Ironically, multiple people have already given me the Kansas City Chief combo of Tyreek Hill and Travis Kelsey. I said number one to wide receiver combos. People will check in on that a little bit later on in this show. Since we last spoke, Jaguars have done a lot of stuff. First of all, it's unraveling. I've been telling you that I should not. You would not trust these Jacksonville wide receivers.
Anybody having Blake Bortle service throw them the ball. Well, offensive coordinator Nate Hackett has been fired. What else has happened? Blake Bortles has been benched? What else happened. Leonard four Nette suspended for one game for his fist the cups with Manny Last and up there in Buffalo last week. Okay, Jacksonville is completely unraveling. I would fade them moving forward.
They're gonna go Cody Kessler at quarterback, and obviously, to me, this means that the Blake Bortle's experiment has been concluded. They will be in the market for a new starting quarterback next year. I think there's gonna be something of a merry go round with some quarterbacks. I've been saying
them all year to Rod Taylor, Teddy Bridgewater. You know you can add to that guys now, like maybe Joe Flacco, who I think would be a great fit in Jacksonville, and some others that maybe on this merry go round, Jamis Winston for example, potentially Andy Dalton himself, because Andy Dalton was sent to i R with that thumb injury. Now this is important to me, and let me explain to you why the Bengals are five and six right Now, sure, if you had Andy Dalton, maybe he's just your QB two,
right and it's not that big of a deal. But here's where I think it's a big problem. I've been saying for the last couple of weeks that I fear that the Bengals may shut AJ Green down if they lose a couple of games, if they get out of
the playoff race, they may shut him down. This news makes that likelihood to me a lot more viable, because, hey, you ain't got your starting quarterback right so maybe instead of going five right now, five and six, maybe you wind up going five and seven and then five and eight, hastening the time when you are no longer a contender
and could shut AJ Green down. The other part of this is, listen, you ain't got your quarterback, so it's the backup quarterback in there anybody Anyway, I am fading most of these Bengals, and if you own a J. Green and you will hold an out, hope, Listen, he's questionable. They think they may give it a go, but I think unfortunately, when you need him on Week fifteen and your fantasy playoffs, that ship may have sailed. Or the Cincinnati Bengals Marvin Jones has been sent to I R guys.
Detroit Lions started this season with three wide receivers that were all startable in fantasy. I told you this network told you my guy Scott Angle, told you my guy Mike Blewett told you that of the three, the name you needed who was going to actually step up for that Detroit Lion pass game. Sing it with me, everybody, Goladay, and he's the last man standing. Marvin Jones done, Golden Tate still trying to figure himself out in Philadelphia. Goladay.
I'm telling you it would be so nice. There you go. All right, So Marvin Jones into I R. Jack Doyle has gone to I R. Doyle. Rules is now on I R. This is important as well. Listen, the Indianapolis Colts are like so hot that like liquid hot magma right now, Okay, that's how hot they are. Andrew Luck has storm for three or more touchdowns and something like seven games in a row. Look out for the Colts,
and look out now for Eric Ebron. Eric Ebron, in my opinion, with the Jack Doyle news, he's going to I R. Eric Ebron to me is a hop five tight end rest of the season. Top five. I'll give you Urts, I'll give you Kelsey, I'll give you Kittle, right, and I'll give you gronk just because you kind of have to. I defy you guys to name one more tight end that you would rather have than Eric Ebron other than those four mm hm mellium dollars. We'll see
about that. Jeff Hireman done for the season. Okay, he's got um crack ribs and and compressed lung. He's not doing good. They sent Jeff Hireman to I R. I think if anything that might help out Courtland Sutton, you know, is he's trying to gain that after they they traded away to Marius Thomas and my man Frank Stanfeld, my best friend forever in fantasy, had a nice nickname, had a nice song with this one, Can You Take Me Higher? Man? But he's done for the year. Look for Courtland Sutton
to make up some of that. Of course, Philip Lindsay continues to do work. And of course you know about Manny Sanders, who's a week two week start. Everything is on the table, says Hallba about the Ravens quarterback situation. And here's what I'm gonna tell you. They are now at the point where they can't necessarily be like, oh, Joe Flacco is still hurt. They're gonna make a decision
here and Hallba is gonna try and split the difference. Okay, I think they're gonna literally do it like it's a college team, and like some drives will be Flacco, some drives will be Lamar. This hurts your fantasy for all the Ravens. I was saying, if it's Lamar Jackson, then yeah, Gus Edwards. I'm all about yeah, Lamar Jackson. I'm all about them running the ball. I told someone on social
media today, I'm off you know, Andrews and Hearst. I'm off crab Tree because if they're gonna run the ball with Lamar, I don't care if he says he's gonna throw it a little bit more. It's gonna be a run first team. There's not gonna be many attempts or targets out there. If they go back to Joe Flacco, it's very different than Yes, I like crab Tree and Snead and Alex Collins. Potentially, you gotta keep an eye
out on how they're gonna treat O Flacco. And honestly, if they decided to split the difference and really have them rotating out drives, I think that's the worst possible scenario. All right, that's uh, most of the big kind of news and notes. We talked about the injuries, we talked about what's going on in Jacksonville. Even Andy Dalton to I R. So here's what I want to do now. I want to talk about what we got right, what we got wrong in week twelve, al right, is what
Speed's got right. First of all, Jamis Winston. I'm telling you, I've been telling you about Tampa Bay quarterback all season long, whether it was the magic that was happening earlier in this season, or how I liked Jamis. Jamis goes twelve yards, two touchdowns, no turnovers. That's the big one. And let me tell you something. That's what Jamis is trying to prove to this organization for them to you know, keep taking a chance on him with his extension. It's fifth
year option, that sort of stuff. Okay, he needs to show them that he cannot be a turnover machine. This is a guy who had more turnovers in the league in the years that he was there, more than Eli Manning, more than Blake Bortle service. Okay, he has to show that he is able to do that, no turnovers and throwing for three hundred plus yards and the Tampa Bay Bucks win and nine. That's what Jamis is looking for.
That's what the Bucks are looking for in Jamis. That's what fantasy owners are looking for in Jamis and that passing attack. I think he is a fringe QB one weekly. Same with Cameron Braid. Okay, We've been saying it all season long. Tight end is such a wasteland. It really comes down to which tight end score touchdowns. I refer back to Cameron Braid. Last year with Jamis Winston, I think you scored like eight touchdowns, okay, and what you do back last week with Jamis outsuchdown only three six.
But he does get in the end zone. And that's what you need here in um you know, in the in these final stretches where tight end is such a dumpster fire. Okay, So I was right about that. I was right about Andrew Luck. I'm telling you there is no hotter quarterback now. I may consider Andrew Luck right now. Rest of the season. I may consider him QB two behind only Patrick Mahomes. Seriously, they don't have the running game. He's throwing three plus touchdowns a game, and the Colts
offense is hot last week. Look thirty seven, three hundred and forty three yards, three touchdowns, two interceptions. He's up to QB five on the season, seven games in a row with three or more touchdowns. I think the Cults are an a f C wild card threat. I'm gonna say it right now. You've got the Colts and the Ravens at six and five at um the sixth seed right now in the a f C. My money's on the Colts to stay hot. And look at this schedule left. I mean, the Colt see the Giants, they see the
Jacksonville Jaguars who are unraveling. I like these Colts. I like Andrew Luck as a top notch quarterback, even with Eric Ebron now playing the dual tight end roll. Also, how much do I have to tell you about going on full Chubb? Okay, don't know what you're watching on TV right now, what's streaming on your computer. If it ain't Fantasy Freestyle, maybe you're going full Chub as well.
But Nick Chubb is doing this. I've said he is an RB one moving forward, and if you listen to me and played him as such, you were benefited with eighty four yards on the ground, another forty four through the air. Some quick math tells me that's a hundred and twenty eight scrimmage yards. But he had a touchdown both ways as well, and three catches. Okay, so we're talking about what, oh, I don't know, we're talking about what like seven PPR points. I'll take that every single week.
This passing offense is gonna be something of a herd in Cleveland Landry in Joku, Callaway Higgins. But Chub will be there full. Chub is an RB one moving forward. God also right, I told you about Aaron Jones, how he would starting to grow in in a kind of status with the Green Bay Packers. I had this argument with my man, the King Scott Angle on mornings all the time. I was on the Adam Aaron Jones train, and it looks like he is performing as an RB two.
He gets another ninety three yards and a touchdown in UM last week. Okay, so he's got three catches, gets the touchdown. In PPR formats, we're talking about, you know, eighteen points. I'll take that out of my RB two. Similarly, I told you about Josh Adams for the Philadelphia Eagles being a guy who was on the ascent. I had him as a waiver wire ad, I had him in DFS lineups. I told you about Josh Adams. He represented value.
He led the Philly backfield. Okay, this is no committee anymore, this is no time share, okay, um Josh Adams had twenty two carries. The next highest was Corey Tormant with five. This backfield belongs to Josh Adams. There's even reports right now they're trying to get him even more work. You may still be able to get him. He's only owned in something like fifty or sixty percent of leads. If you lost Melvin Gordon, if you lost Marlon Mac, Josh
Adams is a name to know. The las thing I'll say in terms of what I got right before I start to acknowledge some other things. I'm telling you about Cam Newton. Guys, I've been telling you about Cam Newton. His completion percentage is one thing, and who they're trying to get the ball to. Granted, they lost the Seattle twenty seven, I believe on Sunday. But Cam continues his
completion percentage, going twenty five of thirty. That's five out of six, all right, That is again up there he's improving. His completion percentage was usually in the mid fifties, is up in the high sixties. This year thirty is even better than that. The other thing, I will tell you, and I've been making this point for the last month, it is not about functious or Olson anymore. It's not about the big body guys with the large catch radius.
That's not what NORV Turner is doing. NORV Turner instead is getting the ball out of Cam Newton's hands quicker and allowing his shaken baked guys in space, those ricky bobby guys to make yards after the catch. And that continued. Okay, Cam Newton complete balls eleven to Christian McCaffrey, eight two d J. Moore another two to Samuel and right Greg Olsen only got two of these. They are evolving in Carolina. It's helpful for Cam and it's helpful for guys like
d J. Moore. All Right, things that I was close on. I was close on this Dalvin Cook thing. I told you how I'm concerned about Dalvin Cook. I'm abcerned. I'm concerned about the Minnesota offensive line. They did win the game, right, but Dalvin Cook goes ten carries a twenty nine yards. Dalvin Cook did get you forty seven and a touchdown in the past game. So that's why it's like close, Because if you had Dalvin Cook, you get what seventies six yards and a touchdown gets you to thirteen point six.
Three catches get you to sixteen point six. So if you started Cook, you're okay. But I'm close because it still doesn't look right. The team is only rushing for sixty two yards by running backs. You know, I would almost rather some of these other guys. I would almost rather the Peyton Barber's the Josh Adams over Dalvin Cook right now. And I don't think I'm crazy, and I think I might maintain that. That's why I was kind of close on that one. I was close about the Steelers.
I said, the Steelers are rolling and I want parts of them. They lost to end their wind streak, right, but Big Ben throws four hundred sixty two yards Juju nine and one and a touchdown Anthony Antonio Brown fifteen points, so you can't be mad at that. Right, Connor had yards. He did have the fumble as well, so I know that's an issue. But their offense continues to roll. Yes, they got the loss and snapped the losing streak, but
you still want shares of that offense for fantasy. Also, I thought the Cardinals were gonna go back to David Johnson. He did get nineteen touches and seventy nine yards um, but they only scored ten points as an offense, and you want to get shares of these people in offenses that are putting up Saints, Jeeves, Rams, Patriots kind of numbers. Cardinals are not that offense. So one thing I got completely wrong. I thought Gus Edwards was gonna be fool gazzy.
I thought he was someone you needed to forget about. I was wrong. They liked the combination of Lamar Jackson with speed threatening the outside and Gus Edwards a violent north south runner. All right, so Lamar has led this team to two and oh record, right, and uh, Gus again went for twenty three carries a hundred and eighteen yards. I think Collins is in the doghouse a little bit. If it is Lamar Jackson, They're gonna continue with Gus Edwards.
They provide a unique rushing potential for the Baltimore Ravens moving forward. Those are some of the things that got right some of the things I got wrong in week twelve. Here's what we're gonna do when we come back. What we're gonna do is I'm gonna start to go into the waivers. Okay, We're gonna go waiver wires from every position. You may have lost like an Andy Dalton in the
two quarterback League. You may have lost Melvin Gordon right, you may have lost someone like Jack Doyle at the tight end position, Marvin Jones at the wide receiver position. We're gonna go position by position. Sorry, we're verse cow girl as usual. And what I'll do is I'll let you know some guys that you can target on the
waiver wire as it moves forward for week thirteen. But what I will also say is this is a fine week to skip the waiver wire if you want to save that priority, save that fat budget, and you wanna you know, because not too many people got hurt if you're a playoff team. Honestly, if you're a playoff team, are you going to like really spend your money on someone like um oh, I don't know, uh Adam Humphries or instead, are you gonna save this for what you
really need? Moving on. That's what I'm talking about. That's what we're gonna get into. When we do, the Waivers will check in on the polls will answer your questions as well. Right now though, guys, we've got thirty one likes. When we come back, I want to see that number touch and fifty. Okay, can we do it? I think we can. I have faith in the stats over Beat Cipher. Don't forget also to answer the poll question right now.
Of you say, it's the combo up in Pittsburgh, Minnesota, feeling and digs, then the rams, then some others will read out responses when we come back on the other side of the break, it's Waivers, it's your questions from the YouTube chat and the stats over Beat Cipher with your boy speeds and spitting statistician Stable Janes and vocal minority of the Fantasy Sports Radio Network. This is Fantasy Freestyle. Danny. I think we're up to episode like what three thirty
seven or something like that, three forty something. It's a lot of fun. Jilly Dilley, let me know in the chat room what episode we're up to, and uh, you know, I'll let you know.

or up to forty one likes. Let's get it popping with the stats over beat cipher um Lance. I agree with you. I'm taking the Seattle Seahawks as a stream one against the San Francisco forty Niners this week. They also play the San Francisco forty Niners again week fifteen. If you gotta buy that's your playoff week. I like Seattle given that choice, Lance Pedro twist that Ish baby twist that ish let me know when that gets sparked. And Jilly Dilley is letting me know that we are
up to episode three hundred and forty eight. Big Time Things. I appreciate the status over Beat Cipher. I hope you saw that on Thanksgiving. I sent that a little video with some of the kids that we here with speeds versus the kids. I hope y'all got to check that year Lands Davis, WHOA, That's what I'm talking about, Yo. I just saw something on Netflix like these hip hop revolutions, and there was an episode really focused on Nas and Wu Tang and ultimately Biggie as these early nineties New
York City heads, and it was really I recommended. That's That's what I'll say. I recommended. All right, But let's get into it. Let's start talking about um waivers for the day. We're gonna do waivers and I'm gonna answer your question in this segment. And guys, I think you're gonna like my special guests representing the stats. Over Beat Cipher. It's someone that we've talked about before, Um, you've seen
me a little hint. You've seen me uh rocking their gear almost every show this year, and we talked about how we're gonna get prizes for the Game of Inches, but we're gonna have a special guest judge representing that a little bit later on in the show. Quarterbacks, Let's say you lost Andy Dalton. Okay, I'm telling you right now, I ain't mad at Josh Allen. Guys, I'm not mad at Josh Allen. Everyone praises Lamar Jackson for that floor
of his rushing potential. Josh Allen is doing the same damn thing, and his team is down all the time. They're throwing if you need. If you just lost your QB two and Andy Dalton, Let's say I'd rather Josh Allen. Honestly, I'd rather him than like uh, Cody Kessler were Jeff drisc all right, hopefully though you're not in that situation where you're relying on Andy Dalton or Blake Bordles um you know, in this league. But I listen, I'd give Josh Allen a look in super flexing two quarterback leagues.
I think that rushing potential UM and floor is there all right, But most importantly, let's talk about the running back situation. You may have lost Marlon Mack, you may have lost Melvin Gordon. I'm here to tell you right now. I know it sounds crazy, and I don't know how many times I gotta tell you guys this Austin Ekeler. I check today, he's owned in seventy of leagues. That means he's available and about a third of leagues right now,
you can grab Austin Ekeler. This guy is going to be an RB two for the rest of the way as long Melvin Gordon is out owned. Go check. Okay. The other thing I will say in the same vein similarly, think about Nahem Heinz. You could think about Nahem Heinz as well. I think that is very interesting. He is twenty two percent owned. If Marlon mcmarlin Mack, I think it's gonna miss this game with the concussion protocol, right if he misses, I think Nahem hen steps right in there.
And I tell you about how I like the Indianapolis Colts offense right now and how well they are moving. I think that is something you really need to pay attention to. Nahem Heinz could be there if you know. Let's say you lost Marlon Mack. But if you were listening to me, you take all your starters and you are planning cuffing these guys anyway, So you hopefully have lost the Neckler. You hopefully have nahem Heines. Here's some other names. I've mentioned them before. Um Josh Adams has owned.
I think he's worth a look. Gus Edwards is sixty three percent owned. I would not go there, and Doug Martin is seven percent owned. I would not go there to me. Austin Ekeler, Nothim Heinz, Josh Adams. Those are the three I would like. Okay, then there is a tier down to Gus Edwards, Doug Martin, Okay, the Peyton Barber's of the world as well. The other name I'll give you in that top group with Austin Neckler for me,
Josh Adams, and not heim Hines for this week. If you're in a pickle, we don't know if carry on Johnson is gonna come back yet. You may need to keep calm and carry on, and if you do that, you may need to look to LGBT rights. Lagarrett Blunt Lagarrett Blunt had twenty plus fantasy points against the Bears defense on Thanksgiving, two rushing touchdowns. Will he do that every week? I don't know. But this is a guy who did have eighteen rushing touchdowns for the New England
Patriots just like two years ago. All right, if carry On Johnson is out, and by the way, if you won't carry On Johnson, you need Lagarrett Blunt anyway. He is a guy that you can plug right in at the same level as Eckler, not Hem, Heinz and Josh Adams. And it's you're lucky to be able to get Like starting running backs just come up on the radar in Week twelve or thirteen of the NFL and the fantasy season. Those are some running backs I like. I try to
rank order them for you. Eckler, Hines, Adams, le Garrett Blunt. Then there is a drop off to Gus Edwards to me, and that's tied to Lamar Jackson or Joe Flacco, Doug Martin and Peyton Barber. All right, those are the guys that are probably available. If you have a different kind of I don't know, player pool or options, then let me know. Let me know how that works hit me up on Twitter at spitting speed. You could always sign up to the official Stats overbeats with the Patreon um
as well. Big shout out by the way, I should shout out the latest Patreon, my latest subscriber. I try to give a shout out to the real Stats overbeats. Marco t. Thanks for getting down officially with Stats Overbeats. Cipher, you are now one of the patreons all right wide receivers. Maybe you lost Marvin Jones, you know what I'm saying. Maybe you're like Ocean app d ain't bringing a j greenback. You know what I'm saying. So you may have to uh make a move. And here's what I would say.
It's a lot of the same names. Okay, I told you, And by what I got right, what I got wrong? How much I love what d J. Moore is profiling for now for the Carolina Panthers offense. I don't care if Funch just comes back or not. D J. Moore is on the ascent. I believe d J. Moore is going to be the number one receiver for the Carolina Panthers next year. Target him in dynasty leaguess. People get him now before the ascension is complete. Um he is
owned all right, uh kiki qt. Although I don't like what he did, okay, Um, I don't like what he did last night. It looks like it's a lot more Damerius Thomas as Damerius Thomas gets his footing with a new offense. Adam Humphries I've mentioned. I think Adam Humphries is interesting. He's only owned and I'd rather have Adam Humphries right now than keiki qti de Sean Jackson seeing like a hand specialist or something like that. So I
think that's interesting. And the last name I'll give you, although I would have him lower ranked for me is David Moore in Seattle. David Moore in Seattle had a hundred yard game last week, is being targeted by Russell Wilson. The problem for me is that the Seattle Seahawks are just running the ball way too much to really have faith in some of those past catchers. Okay, So for me, d J. Moore, Adam Humphries, David Moore. Here's the one other name that I'll throw in there, and I think
it's interesting and something that you need to understand. I always say, watch the guys who had to buy last week, well that was the chiefs in the rams. You figure all those guys are owned, right, However, Josh Reynolds just came onto the radar after the Cooper Cup injury. Then they had their by So maybe Josh Reynolds is you know, unowned out there. People were not picking him up when he was on there by week. Okay, so Josh Reynolds
is owned, so there's some opportunity there. Josh Reynolds I would put above d J. Moore, So Reynolds, d J. Moore, Adam Humphries, Kiki q T, David Moore. Those are some wide receivers that I could see. However, and you know what I'm I have to apologize if igot about one more running back I mentioned at the top of the show that I didn't have in my notes here. Rex Burkhead, Hey, Rex Burkhead on the Patriots. Okay, he is going to get Jazz enough carries to eat into Sony Michelle, just
enough catches to eat into James White. I think you gotta see this. I think they're gonna have him available as of like this week, all right, and keep an eye out on this. They could play this one of two ways. One he could be like the backup to both of them right insurance policies, or they could literally integrate him into the mix and it becomes a three
person committee. Again. If I know the Patriots, they're gonna do whatever is most frustrating, possibly to fantasy owners, which is probably getting all three of them involved on some level. I know that sucks, but that's the way I think it's probably gonna go down. Let's keep it moving here, tight end. I told you how bad of a wasteland tight end is. I know Eric Ebron I mentioned as the top five guy, but he's owned already. Right, I've
talked about Cameron Braid making America Braid again. He's owned in sixty of leagues. I'll give you three other guys if you are desperate, and you might be listen. It's been such a waste line, a waste waste land. Oh. J Howard recently, right, Jeff Hireman recently, Jack Doyle recently. I think you need to go out and get Cameron Braid if you can. But he's owned in sixt like two thirds of leagues. Okay, so he's worth a check, but it ain't gonna happen maybe, and so here's what
you need to go after that. I can't believe I'm saying this, and I promise it's not because I'm being a homer as a Jets fan. And I think the number one ad if you're in that dire strait is actually Herndon. Chris Herndon, the rookie tight end out of Miami. He's been good lately for the Jets. He's had something like seven catches his last couple of games. Okay, I
think he's the priority at tight end. If you need one, then I would go Gerald Everett and John hu Smith, who you saw pop off yesterday for the Tennessee Titans in a blown coverage. Don't expect the six r touchdown every game, but I do think that's a place you could go if you are desperate. But it's slim pickings out there. I acknowledge it. Cameron Braid, That's why you should have listened to me last week, right and grab yourself some Cameron Braid um. Otherwise you can get those
Rams guys, the Higbies, the Everetts, the Herndon's. That's why I like they're all right. So you got some some waiver ads. Let's go by the way, we only have to forty three likes. By the way, what it is? All right, so it would be it would be so nice. Golliday. It's Golliday season people. All right, Um, we got questions here. Let's answer some questions here from the stats over Beat Cipher.
And then what we're gonna do is we'll hit the second break and after the break we will welcome our guests and have a little fun with the stats over Beat Cipher as we put the Fun and Functional Sports rad You alright, question from Jeremy McMahon, and he's my man. I know it's for twenty up in there all the time. Chubb or Aaron Jones. The answer to me is as Chubb chubbed to me as an RB one. Aaron Jones is an RB two. You need to ride. You need to go full on Chubb, Jeremy, as much as you
possibly can. All right, Chubb is an RB one. Aaron Jones is an RB two in my opinion. Moving forward, fred D asked me, is Ekeler? I must start? Yes, Ekeler had standalone value. While Melvin Gordon was in there, I was saying he was almost like a flex play on his own regardless in the same way that like you could have started, you know, uh, James White and
Sony Michelle. In years past, you could have started Davante Freeman and Tevin Coleman, Alvin Kamara and mark Ingram Right, um, I believe there was a place in there this season where you could have started Melvin Gordon and Austin Ekeler. Obviously now with Gordon out, yes, Fred, I consider Ekeler a must start every week until or unless Melvin Gordon comes back. G Rawls one as Cooks, Evans and Juju, But for some reason I want to play DJ Moore.
Should I valid question? Cooks, Evans and Juju? You know, g Rawls, I feel like you've got to start the three guys you have, right, you gotta start Cooks, especially after the Cup injury. Him and Woods are splitting it all. Juju and Antonio Brown are you know, in many people's opinion and of the people's opinion right here, the best one to combo in the NFL. So it sounds like, honestly, what you're talking is about is can I bless? Can I accept? Can I get with starting DJ Moore over
Mike Evans? H I wouldn't do it, especially with Jamis Winston back in the saddle. But you're not crazy, you know. I can understand what you're trying to do here, g Rawls. I personally wouldn't do it. I would ride with Cooks, Evans and Juju. I could understand you trying to maybe put in more for Evans. I wouldn't do it, but I ain't gonna hate on you. All right, did g Rawls? All right? Martin as Winston or Aaron Rodgers? Wow? How crazy is it that we're legitimately asking Aaron Rodgers or
Jamis Winston? And how crazy is it that made answer to you is going to be easily? Jamis Winston, Aaron Rodgers. They argusing Aaron Jones. They're trying to run the ball a little bit more. They are running more than Tampa Bay, for example, and Tampa because of that defense that they have, they are in the shootouts. I've made this point before, Jamis Winston is if you didn't take care of the ball. And also remember Aaron Rodgers used to get some rushing potential.
You're not getting that right now with his bum knee. I lean, Jamis Winston. I think it's crazy to say it out loud, right and to say it to the you know someone. Yeah, I'm gonna bench Aaron Rodgers who put the quarterback on some four and seventeen, who was suspended for a few games and later benched. But that's where we are. I would start Jamis Winston over Aaron Rodgers. Everest Delva is asking me Ingram Cohen or James White picked two in PPR. Uh, James White is definitely one
of them. James White to me, and PPR is like a back in Darby one. He's getting catches every single week. So to me, it comes down to Trek Cohen or mark Ingram. Here's the way I'll play it. If Trabinski is back, then are like Cohen. If they stick with Chase Daniel, then I'll go I'll pivot to the Saints and mark Ingram. That's the way it is, so Everett
or every excuse me, James White is definitely in. You need to hear the Mitchell Trobinski injury reports throughout the week to hear about Cohen's vitility or viability versus Ingram. But definitely you get James White in. There. Got a couple more questions that we're gonna do UM, and the first one is Jorge my Man Chub over James Conner. That might be going too far. I believe Nick Chubb is a back end RB one. I believe James Conner
is a solid mid level RB one. I think James Connor is something like RB six rest of the way, and I think Chub is something like RB eleven the rest of the way. What I would ask you, Jorge or George, however we want to call it. What I would ask you Jorge is um, can you start them both? Can you flex one of them? Um? I would try to do whatever I can to flex one of them. For example, and one league I have, I'm now starting
Nick Chubb over Joe Mixing, and I'm flexing mixing. I go Zeke Elliott, Nick Chubb and Joe Mixon, and now it's mixing the one that's in the flex. Okay, So I would wonder, or hey, could you flex one of them Chubb or James Conner? And I would love to know who that other running back you have is that you're starting over both of them. It's gotta be like Kareem Hunter, Todd Gurley, right, gotta be Zeke something like that, s Kwan, because otherwise I think both of these guys
got to get into your lineup. Alright, not next question here, William T. Duke Johnson or Edo Smith. That's an interesting question. Here's what I'm gonna tell you about this one. The Duke Johnson thing. I wonder if they're just gonna make Nick Chubb a complete three down workhorse even in passing downs, or if it will be a thing like I was predicting with the Lions and having carry On Johnson and Theo Riddic on the field at the same time. I could see them maybe having Duke Johnson and h Nick
Chubb on the field at the same time. But the Duke Johnson, it's it's it's shady. It really is Edo Smith. I kind of like, but he's a backup to me, William, this is this coin flip for me. It truly is.
It's a coin flip for me. I'm gonna have a slight lean to Duke Johnson, but keep an eye out on what they say, um in terms of how they want to use Nick Chubb, because you know Perrying is in there and he's right what happened to Atlanta, And I think that's the case, right, And and then sad J Cutler saying, if Chubb is playing as a three
down back, you're right. Here's the thing though, And to Troit they let carry on Johnson do that and they still use the oritic like out of the slot almost right, And Duke Johnson has been getting work like that as well, said Jay Cutler. You know so, So that's the way I'm saying, like there may be room for Chub as a three down back and for Duke Johnson to eat in the passing game. Right with Edo Smith in Atlanta, I think the other options in Tevin Coleman as the
lead back is more solidified. Is it time to drop Courtland Sutton? Maybe I'd hold on to him one more week to see what happens now that Jeff Hireman is on I R maybe a little bit better. All right.

Welcome back Fantasy Freestyle right here on the Fantasy Sports Radio Network, which boy Dane Martinez speeds, the spitting statistician and the stats over Beat Cipher helping you win your leagues and win that cast. We just talked a little bit about what guys to target on the waiver Wire, Dexter, I see your question, Wentz Mayfield or Jamis Winston. I agree
with the stats over Beats Cipher. There in the chat room. Listen, the Buccaneers passing offense has been top five all year. I told you, if you added up Fitzpatrick and Winston, you have QB three in Fantasy. But most importantly, that defense is blunt, guts trash, forcing the Tampa Bay Bucks to be in shootouts. So because of that, I like Winston over Wentz or Mayfield for the rest of the season. But then again I mentioned to you guys, we got stats over beat cipher member joining us Now, I tried
to tease it. You see me rocking the road O war gear every time here on Fantasy Freestyle out there on social media. Who we have joining us is CEO and executive director, owner, founder and main dude for road A. Where my man, Kenny Cashman. How you doing, Kenny, You're on the Fantasy Freestyle do a good dame, Thank you. Thanks for the intro. Absolutely, dude, I gotta get that up. I don't know what your official business card title is. What is your technical title for road Aware big dude?
That's right. I actually did know that because it's gonna say the commissioner. Dude, main dude, let me know, because I know your printing process ain't nothing. The f with so maybe your business card process is the same. For those who don't know Kenny, listen, I've been a big fan, as you know of road Aware. We linked up about a year ago and I was just like, Yo, those are hot. Let me do anything I can to promote each other, you know, and you real recognize, real kind
of thing. Tell the people listening what is road Aware? Where'd you get the concept from? And this is like year two of the business. How's it going. It's stilling good. Road Aware was just some crazy idea that I had to, uh the startup with teacher company, and so I did, and that's kinda that's the beginning and and we're kind of where we are now. Um, you know, basically started off mostly with with like fantasy designs, how kind of going into you know, um, teams of regions and stuff
like that, just playing off themes. But it's been, uh, it's been a blast. You know. It's something that's just kind of come up, you know, out of nothing and just just had a lot of fun along the way. Just you know, each each week, each month is just kind of like a new step, no doubt. So let me ask you this because you know, I check for
you on social media all the time. And let me tell you something, bro, something happens in the sports world and y'all are like out there with shirts twelve hours later, all right. I remember the j R. Smith when he didn't know the time and score y'all had that out right away, Baker Mayfield right or way you know? Um and a number of others like, how are you guys so a responsive and be so creative? Are you just in the lab hitting the pen and like thinking about this?
So how is it happening? Like, tell me about your process about being so creative out there, bro. I mean you kind of hit the down that did fair enough, all right, So you're getting in there, you're enhancing your creativity and you just making it pop exactly. I appreciate that.
I appreciate that. Listen, Kenny, we got linked up not only because your your shirts of the bomb, but also because you're not only the commissioner a rod Aware, but you're the commissioner of Rhodo rhymes as well, right, like fantasy based rap lyrics and verses. Tell me a little bit about Rhodo rhymes. Yeah, so about a long time ago, probably about ten years ago, because let me let let me not let me not very the lead here, Kenny.
You used to be a rapper. You even open for a man who the long name is knowledge right in supreme over nearly everyone that is correct. Yeah, I'm talking about for for a long time. And uh, and just kind of decided to have some phone with it, you know, all right, if I'm gonna start off the T shirt thing and just let me just have some fun with creating content. And you know, I don't I don't write
articles or post a podcast. So that's kind of just you know, that's that's my outlet, along with absolutely and not. Don't know if you've seen our guy. We got our guy, Young Cors in the trap game my extros. Have you seen his like fantasy football remixes that he churns out every week? Um literally And the thing is he literally
I say it to you, Kenny. You know, when something happens in sport, you get a T shirt, right like, you know, the next day, this dude is literally taking stats and you know, headlines from last week in football and having a song ready to drop by Tuesday, you know, with the actual like he mimics the cadence of rappers. You know, he did like forgot about amr A like forgot about Dre and he like rode the eminem cadence and stuff. He's doing it dirty, dirty South. We did
a Rick Flair drip parody. He's on him popping. Have you checked any of that out? I have a great stuff. All right, that's what's up. So let's talk about a little bit about football. All right, let's talk a little bit about football here, Canny. First of all, how many leagues are you in this year? How are you doing down this year? I'm in leagues? Um uh is ssb A Okay, I just wanna I just wanted the division.
I was in the top ten for a minute, dipped off a little bit, but I looked out the guy with the number one pick took bell Ah, So I got Girly and then I took my man, Mahomes. I want to say, fifth round. So as long as you know,
I didn't make too many mistakes. Yeah, if you've got Girly in Mahomes, you put it on autopilot for most of the way, right, But those two teams had those Both of those guys had to buy last week, right, So you were missing both of them, and so that's pretty rough off and uh and Davis popped off last night, so let's let's guys took it home even even with the but all right, so let me frame this here for you, Kenny, and thanks thanks a lot for joining
here Fantasy Freestyle. This is Kenneth Cashman, the commissioner of RODA where you gotta go to rot aware dot com for all of the illest t s in the business if you want to, like, you know, you see me rocking them here on Fantasy Freestyle. You see them out in the industry who's been rocking your shirts recently, like Alex Rodriguez. Uh, some of these like big time athletes are rock and road aware. Right, it's pretty cool. And then as a Yankee fan, it's uh now it's awesome.
And and my man, my man, paxt thing just got traded to the Yeah, you know, all right, So here's what we said. I talked to you before the season and I was like, listen, I got a little contest going, Kenny, as we call a game of inches. People sending their bad beats to me every week, Okay, stuff like, and
I sent you some of them. Right. One dude lost by point to one week in Week three, I think had the lead, but then Big Ben on kneel downs at the end of the game, he loses three tents of a point and that's how he loses hashtag game of inches. That's a bad beat. That's rough, you know what I'm saying, Kenny. That's pretty bad. And I was actually on the other side of that. I traded the guy Big Ben in the off season, So for me, I mean, it sucks. It sucks for the guy that lost,
no doubt. So here's the thing and what we decided, and and thank you again to road Aware. Um you decided that whoever we decide is like the worst beat of the entire season. We're gonna give him to you know, numb the pain, shall it be. We're not gonna give him a percose set, but we are going to give him a free road road to wear shirt, right all right, So that's what we're gonna do. Big shout out to that.
We're also we talked about maybe working out a little promo code for the status over beats on some of those first run shirts. We'll get those details a little bit later on, but Kenny, I sent you some of the examples that I was looking at Derek vosion off DeAndre Hopkins catching some weird crazy thing that really was a lateral um on the last play of the game. The guy lost by point eight. Guys losing because of kneel downs. Big Ben kneeled down, Tom Brady kneeled down.
People lost. There's also some people that literally would have won if they left the position empty, but instead, like for example, Quincy and Noonwhall one week gets a minus one and the guy loses by less than a point. Dalvin Cook gets a minus one and the guy loses by three tenths of a point. That is really rough. I sent you some of the nominees. What do you think so far? That was the one to see a side by side picture of that guy. One of him
on draft Day. I think he got to steal the Jacks and Cook and another him checking the match up where he loses by point three. Ye, that's the thing Dalvin Cook that week. And you know, Dalvin Cook has been banged up all season long. The Minnesota Vikings haven't really treated him that well. But in one one game, and this is standard league storing, Dalvin Cook managed ten yards total rushing and a fumble. So we got the one point for the ten yards minus two for the fumble,
so Dalvin Cook got him minus one. This is Jake Jackson and Dustin Cross. And then he wound up losing by point three eight, So he lost by three tenths of a point and had Dalvin Cook, who like you said, was probably a late first round or early second round pick stud for this guy, would have been better than literally leave it blank or start someone from a bye week. So you think that's the worst one so far? Uh? So far? All right? How do you feel? Tell me
about this one? Though I sent one of these to you, Irwin g my man Um dude was in a flat footed tie, literally tied someone a hundred thirty two point one to a hundred thirty two point one. How do you feel about ties in fantasy football? Kenny? I mean, the tie is insane, but a fractional tie, that's what I'm saying, right down to the tenth of a point. Maybe it is not a loss. You are absolutely correct. I don't know even though the point the point one ties.
It's tough, but it's not a loss that I'll help you in the in the standings a little bit better. We've seen that with the Minnesota Vikings. Hey, Danny, do we have Danny Otto down there and the stats over beat Cipher on the pan of Pit of Misery. I'm always here, That's what's up. So what do you think about what Kenny Cash has to say over here? He's leaning towards Jake Jackson and Dustin Cross. The Dalvin Cook one where the guy lost by point three eight? I
do remember that? Do you like that one? I don't not like that one? Okay? What's your favorite one? Uh? Can we go to the hold on? It's the big Ben Neil downs, it's the you know, the d Hop one. I know you like that d Hop one from earlier in the season. I think that's that's always gonna be the all right, So here's what we're gonna do, Kenny. I want to find out how you feel about this. Here's what we're gonna do. Because all right, So the
one you like, the Dalvin Cook one, that's a finalist. Okay, Kenneth, that's a finalist. My man Danny has been judging them on a week to week basis, my producer down there in the fantasy Pit of Misery, Dilly dilly to him, I'm gonna let him put his I'm gonna let him put one into the finals. Okay, I'm gonna pick one for the finals as well. Then we're gonna try and get a little collaboration. What I'm thinking, Kenneth is we'll
put those four up as a Twitter pole. I'll tag you, and ultimately we'll let the fans decide of those which was the worst beat. Whoever wins that pole means they have the worst beat. I'll link each other up and we'll get a promo code or something for them to get a free shirt from Road to Ware. How does that sound that we still let the people decide you your nominee. The Dalvin Cook one is a finalist, will be in the poll, but we'll do it as a
poland let the people decide. How do you feel about that, Kenny? Alright? Sounds like a plan. Alright, that's good. The only last thing I want to mention with you, and thanks for spending a couple of minutes for us, is you know, Kenneth, we collaborated on a track. Right, We're gonna drop that track sometime soon. I know you're in the lab doing some mixing, doing some editing, but uh, when do you think the stats over beat Cipher can expect that Kenneth
Cashman speeds the spitting statistician new original. Maybe next week. It was supposed to be done a month ago. That's okay. I wasn't putting you on blast like that though. My lab is in between my two kids rooms. I understand. I understand. So we'll do what we can. We'll get we'll get it on and popping. Let's stay within the next Let's stay within the next two weeks. All right, sounds good this way. People are still playing fantasy football,
still listening in Fantasy Freestyle. How can we find you? Kenneth? Tell me? What's the website? How can we find you? How can we find you online? If people want to get these fresh teas that I'll be rocking here on Fantasy Freestyle. I'm rocking a Rhodo god today, Kenneth, um, how can they find you? Your website and all that good stuff. So the website is pretty easy to remember. It's rotalware dot com and on Twitter um at rod aware, right, and uh yeah, and actually got the promo code live. Yeah,

So Danny, there you have it, Kenneth Cashman from Rodo where. With a couple of minutes left that we're gonna open up the phone lines three four seven, seven, six seven six six one four three four seven seven six seven six six one four. I'll answer a couple of questions if they come on in.
See how you win your leagues and win that cash Week thirteen big time questions. While we're waiting on any of those calls to come in, Danny, what do you think? What do you think? First of all. How cool is that Stats over beats as a promo code on road aware off. That's awesome. That's right, I might have to use that. Who said it was never profitable to be plotted the stats over beat cipher? You know what I'm saying. You wanna unless you want to use the Dane discount
and and get me. I'm a champion, I'm an ambassador, you know what I'm saying. I'm a spokesperson. I'm a promo model. You know what I'm saying. He didn't turn, Brian, are really cold down here in We could use a shirt or just enter the promo code Stats over beat. Fine, you'll be fine, but do be a fami. So that's what we're gonna do. We're gonna make sure that uh Kennis picks the Dalvin Cook minus one is a is an entry. I like your DeAndre Hopkins one all the
way back from week two, I believe it was. And what we're gonna need to do is this weekend. Next week, we're gonna need to find finalize the last two finalists and then we'll put it up for the people to decide right before the holiday break. Okay, alright, so we only got a couple of minutes left. Remember the number the call is three four seven seven six seven six six one four. We got that pole question up there
right now. Fifty of you have think that Antonio Brown and Juju Smith Schuster are the best wide receiver combo in the National Football League. Um, what else do we got? What else do we got? We got Bobby Woodroffe here. It is three four seven seven six seven six six one four. If we get any calls, we can plug them right back in there right now. Okay, we only got about what a minute or two, Danny, So if anybody wants to come across, the phone lines are open.
Three four seven seven six seven six six one four. Um, that's what it is. Uh No lands the fourth floor Stan smells like you know, cranberries and rainbows and perfume and everything that is nice here. That's what I'm talking about. Yes, Lanz Davis, You're right. The cipher needs some gear. Use the promo code stats over beats, Kenneth Spencer, half point PPR Flex, Chubb and Barkley are starting. Sony flex Tony the stereotype or Addie yelled in or j No you
flex Sony can especially Spencer you flex Sony. The only thing that would cause concern for me there is if Rex Burkhead you hear news that he's like, all of a sudden in a huge committee with these guys. But Sony Michelle is a step ahead of Yelden or Josh Adams. And if you've got Chubb Barkley and the stereotype, I like that one. Lanz Davis here, we're gonna be dropping some verses. Twister, oh, a little overnight celebrity. I'm speeds, but I don't know if I could be as fast
as Twister. I will acknowledge that, Lanz Davis. By the way, Lance, we're up to sixty right now. When is the cipher and goon squad gear dropping? I'm gonna have to holler at mom Man, the fantasy executive of and of course the closer, and we'll find out about that. Nobody wants to holler. We got someone Danny just one minute. Sorry, guys, that's not gonna get it done. Well. I gotta sign off. Here's what we're gonna do. I agree with strong style. It is stony um. I am not the man Kenneth Spencer.
I am merely someone here to try to help everybody win their leagues and win that cash. I am merely the mayor and commissioner of the stats over Beat Cipher. I love my Cipher. I love what we are doing here. Chubb is the answer for you, Jeremy McMahon, Chub over Eckler. I love what we're doing, this community we're building, and hopefully we all combine to win our leagues and win that cash. I got another special Stats over beats guests on Thursday, A very important guest on Thursday, maybe the
Princess of the stats over beat Cipher. Find out who come on on Thursday. Hit me up on Twitter, on Patreon. I'll see y'all there
